WATERTOWN, N.Y. (WWNY) - As states, like New York, face mounting deficits because of COVID-19, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says states should consider bankruptcy. Governor Cuomo called it “one of the really dumb ideas of all time:”
It's not the federal government's job to bail out anyone, much less a state that made poor decisions.

COVID-19 didn't run the deficit way up. Cuomo and his reckless spending did.

Governor Cuomo says many upstate hospitals will be allowed to start performing elective surgeries again:
I hope this will happen. My son needs a very important surgery and we've been waiting far too long.
Amanda Hunter
OMG. This is not good.

Some Watertown teachers were delighted when country music star Brad Paisley joined their book club on Zoom:

Sometimes we forget that superstars are human as well and crave normalcy in their everyday lives.
